Lawsuit may proceed Against Obamacare
Over 20 state attorneys general filed a lawsuit charging that ObamaCare is flatly unconstitutional.
The great news is that they were told by a federal judge late last week the lawsuit you helped inspire can go forward.
Judge Roger Vinson said that the states “have most definitely stated a plausible claim” that the federal government has absolutely no authority under the Constitution to require people to purchase health insurance.
He also indicated that the sovereign right of states under the 10th Amendment have likely been violated by the federal government’s order under ObamaCare to increase their Medicare budgets, which will, in the words of the lawsuit, “run [state] budgets off a cliff.”
Even better, the judge said that President Obama’s attorneys were making “Alice in Wonderland” arguments as they tried to defend the indefensible.
